At about the same time as Watson, Alfred Adler chose to outline his approach to rearing and educating children. Adlers approach:

A. Like Watsons, was behavioral rather than phenomenological or Freudian
B. Was based on understanding childrens behavior from a teleological or goal-oriented perspective, laying the groundwork for Rudolf Dreikurs child psychology
C. Advocated raising children as permissively as possible for as long as possible, but then laying down the law when necessary
D. Replaced Watsons aloofness with protectiveness and attachment so strong that it would be called enmeshment today

Question 2

In 1928, John Watson wrote the first popular psychology book on parenting, called Psychological Care of Infant and Child. In it, he suggested that:

B. Parents should approach childrearing objectively and remain aloof
C. There might be some other environment in which children could be raised more scientifically with better results
D. All of the above
